Student Resources Folder

Contact the professor of the class in which you are struggling. Your professor may have ideas for improvement, or may know of campus resources that can be helpful. The sooner you contact your professor, the better!

Work with the course TA, if available. Also attend study sessions if offered, or meet with other class members to work in study groups.

Meet with your academic advisor. You can request an advisor by using the green form outside the registrar's office if you are wishing to change majors.

The following are key numbers for campus resources. If you have academic, personal, financial, or health concerns, please contact your residence hall staff (for example, your RA), or a support office listed.
